@WindUnwaken

do me a favor, if you look at the [ships] sign and type

/ships sign track 10

and tell me if the ship you created turns into bedrock for 10 seconds?

Ships 5.0.1.5

Ships 5.0.1.5 brings a few changes that prepare it sort of for Minecraft 1.9 (that is suppose to be releasing on 25th). This does not add support for Minecraft 1.9 (because Spigot 1.9 isnt out) however tries to.

In addition to trying to add support to minecraft 1.9, Ships has now had its limits on custom blocks lowered. So, if you are running a forge server that has support to the Bukkit eco system and the forge mod imports the custom blocks into the Bukkit API then Ships will be able to use those blocks. The problem is that these custom blocks may not work. But its not just Forge mods, same goes for other mods that have support for custom blocks and Bukkit that link together well. I believe SpoutMod adds its blocks into the Bukkit API, therefore ships will be able to use those blocks too.

Ships 5.0.1.5 also brings a few other features new features like the ability to remove unreadable Ship files, this is a toggle feature so if you are good at recoving files, then its best keeping this feature off, but if you turn it on, it would mean the time after the next time you boot up (as in 2 boots away), ships would boot up faster (on the 2nd boot) and you would save space on your server for other plugins.

there are also a bug fixes. Mainly in the config file code.

Anyway, Ships 5.0.1.5 has been made and tested and will be releasing this Monday. I am working on Ships 5.0.1.6 however it may take a few hours after Spigot 1.9 is released ;)

I am talking about takeAmount (it used to be called consumption). And it only reads whole numbers.

Ships was designed for it to take whole numbers but i may change it in the future to take decimal numbers. But that would need to be in a future update. As for the other issues you have been having, the latest update sorts them out.

Sorry

@ixionforte

Right then. To fix the first issue. Do the following

1. go to the file and open it (<your server>/plugins/ships/configuration/config.yml)
2. find the words 'track limit:" change it from 5000 to 2500.

If the first issue still continues. Then lower the track limit even more.

To change the fuel consumption rate. Do the following

1. open a vessel config (<your server>/plugins/configuration/vesselTypes/<choose any vessel type you want to modify>)

Find where it says "consumption" and turn it down

@ixionforte

That error is caused when a ship is too big for your server to handel. I am finding out what causes it when someone breaks a block. But a quick fix for the issue is if you go into your config file for ships and turn your "tracklimit" down to something like 2500. It should fix the issue

@BrackioTops

If it is what i think it is, then to fix the issue. follow these steps

1. go to the ships config file (<server>/plugins/Ships/Configuration/Config.yml)
2. scroll down the config till you find the line that starts with "ShipTooSmall"
3. change the last word on the end from "higher" to "lower"

That should tell you exactly what is going wrong. It will be fixed for the next update, i thought i did fix it but must have forgot. Sorry

@zyyapp

Yep. To protect your ship you can use default options that can be enabled in the config under ProtectedVessels (if you are using ships 5-5.0.1.2 you need to use the /ships protect command to enable your vessel to be protected).

You can also protect your ship using other plugins such as ShipsBridge

Ships 5.0.1.3

This is a bug fix update, where most of the bugs you probably didnt see, but always good to fix things.

Vessel Signs

Remember Vessels? remember how it had completely different signs where you could decide how fast you wanted to travel? Well, an addon for Ships is almost done that brings those signs back, but in Ships. I just need to finish the lock sign

@merpasawr
